Bauhaus Pedagogy

Title
Bauhaus Pedagogy
Description
The Bauhaus pedagogy sought to break down boundaries between the artist and the craftsman. This page of one of Higgins’s sketchbooks shows drawings of patterns and vessel forms. The sketchbook mark making shows similarities to the page reproduced from Klee’s sketchbook. The case also displays an early undated glazed ceramic sculpture by Higgins and a 2018 miniature terra cotta. In both sculptures, Higgins incised a variety of marks into the clay.
